Not updates today. Updates will resume on Sunday.

Brian Hainer and Matt Hovey assembled this tutorial video on lubricants, with a focus on Willys Vehicles.

If it runs, it’s likely a good price. No description provided.

UPDATE: I *think* I’ve found a workaround solution, as my main laptop is working once again. If you have 2011 Mac and have vertical lines (as seen below), you likely have a video card problem (aka the AMD graphics chip has failed). There’s a software strategy for working around that which you can find here.

I didn’t get much done yesterday, due to technical difficulties, so updates delayed until Monday. I spent a good deal of time replacing the motherboard on my main laptop, only to find out that the motherboard wasn’t the problem. Sigh. At least I have my 10 year old laptop still (and it still works pretty good).

It appears I will have to use a software hack to make the computer work properly again. So, that’s Sunday’s task….

The screen problems ….

Not good! I may end up purchasing another laptop. We’ll see how things go….

Just a few updates for Saturday. Updates resume Sunday.

UPDATE: Well, I spoke to soon. It’s acting goofy again. Continue sending messages to d@deilers.com. Thanks!

Well, it seems my d @ ewillys.com account is working once more. A hurried look through unread emails suggests that quite a few folks are awaiting responses. I only have 6000 messages to get through, so please be patient.

Just a Few Updates for Thursday. You see, I got so busy puzzling with Ann that I forgot to do the rest of the post. It’s a good way to start the year!

Ann’s mom is in the hospital and, likely, doesn’t have too long to live, so updates might be hit & miss for the next few days.

No updates Monday; updates resume Tuesday morning. There will be updates on Christmas Day so folks with new digital toys can test them out using eWillys 🙂

This is a good example of a CJ-2A chassis with a replacement body that’s being mistakenly sold as a “military jeep”.

“Let’s go play Army! I have a military issue 1946 M38 Willys jeep for sale. It has been fully restored and has military issue tires, not reproductions. You can be General Patton.

“Willys–1957 FC 150. Forward Control cab over engine pickup. Rare 4 wheel drive cabover pickup with Buick v-6, T-98 four speed with Warn overdrive and a Koenig PTO winch. Even rarer with no rust issues! One just sold on another website for over $25,000 and it was and original 4 cylinder (75 hp versus 135 hp), only a 3 speed and no winch. My reserve is much lower than that! Cool to drive around except that every time you stop someone has to ask “What is that? This was the first one I ever saw and had to buy it and I’ve only seen one since. This rare beauty includes:
Buick 198 V-6
T 98 four speed trans. with Warn Overdrive (16 forward gears!)

I spent Friday driving to Portland to pick up a Dale Model die cast jeep, so no time to do updates. More on the jeep Sunday morning. Enjoy your weekend!

Will alerted me that the FC Forward Forum is temporarily down. It was taken down for a supposed violation of the TOS, though I’d be surprised if the forum violated the TOS. There seems to be a way to contact the host and appeal this issue. Anyone know who the administrator(s) were?

This has a replacement body.

(10/26/2019) This project has been built with a 2WD axle up front.

“1950 Willys CJ-3A, rolling chassis only. Post office jeep front axle, body is straight, have windshield frame and old glass, this is a project jeep for sure, floors need some work but body is in good shape. Comes with tow bar and working tail/ brake lights, I have some SBC engine parts but nothing complete.”

Just a video update today. We went camping this weekend along the Columbia River in Vantage. It was a wind blown affair, so being outside wasn’t all that great, but being inside as the wind raged outside was pretty cozy.

Updates resume Tuesday morning.

Good news! I will be extending eWillys in its current form through the end of 2020.

You might remember that on January 1st of this year I mentioned I was planning on ending or making changes to eWillys in the spring of 2020. I’ve decided to delay any changes until December of 2020.

The principal reason for this is to insure that Ann and I have a smoother transition from life as we know it into our new lives in 2020, should things work out like we believe they will. What this means for you all is that you will accompany Ann and I on these upcoming changes. I know this is all a bit vague, but that’s the way it has to be for now.

So, stay tuned!

Updates resume Tuesday morning.
